However, then I receive an email telling me that his office is closed (copied and pasted below), but that I may still call and leave a message. I tried. That number said leave a message, but when the time came, oooooppppsss, the message center was full. The message also gave a fax number. I have not tried that yet, but I&#39;m not holding my breath. I believe he is still drawing a salary, so he needs to find a way to take constituent messages:<br />
What I received:Thank you for taking the time to contact me, please be advised due to the government shutdown, my office is currently closed. My office will respond to your concerns or resume work on your case as soon as the office reopens. In the interim, if you would like to leave a comment for me, you may still do so at 1-866-630-7106 (within Florida) or 202-224-3041. </p>
<p>Sincerely, <br />
U.S. Senator Marco Rubio <br />

However it appears the Herald and its reporters have an agenda and that action would not fit with the agenda so we have to read an article in which they try to justify their original false writing.</p>
<p>They think that we their readers are fools and will just buy what they are writing. Similarly the national democrats think that Bob Graham and Lawton Chiles voters like me will not notice that the democrats have abandoned us as voters. How could the party of these noble former governors be trying to recruit a fraud and worse former Republican like Charlie Crist rather than returning to their roots which will return the winning ways?</p>David Rivera commented on 'UPDATED Government shutdown?

So we are to believe that some unnamed person overheard various other unnamed people say some things to the senator. Whoever wrote this article needs to go back to study the basics of journalism and relearn that you don&#39;t print stories based on one unnamed source, but based on multiple sources. Instead this sounds more like a propaganda piece and shows that the Herald is taking sides in a political matter.</p>Betsy Suero Skipp commented on 'UPDATED Government shutdown?
